Location-Based Applications at CRAFT

Nicolas and I wrote a 4-pages document that summarizes CRAFT’s research projects on Location-Based Services “lbs@craft“. It gives an overview of CatchBob!, Shoutspace and STAMPS. It also presents few results about CatchBob! as well as the issue we have to dealt with while designing those applications. It is not targeted to any special audience and will be used in the upcoming 2005 EPFL I&C Research Day.

In the last page, we talk about the various lessons we learning from the design of location-based services. I cover the current topics I am interested in pervasive technologies: Mixed approach to positioning, Indoor 3D positioning, Managing uncertainty, Latency, and engaging technology.
